Good evening, You hold in your hands, a collection of short stories of the most unfortunate verity. Bound within this volume are tales of revenge, mystery, kidnapping and unimaginable horror. Perhaps it is our duty to warn you of the sheer madness that you will find, if you choose to read further. In each story, you will find heroes, villains and monsters that defy the laws of sanity. Of course, these stories are meant to entertain... but they may, in fact, chill you. If you are of a weak constitution, if you cannot stomach the ideas of deranged minds, read no further. If you seek adventure, however... Let us begin. Muahaha.
